Rb25Det S2 Turbo/engine Problem?


Recommended Posts

I had engine shutting off on me and i fixed that by changing new plugs and replacing new coilpack harness and it fixed that problem but the car still runing like crap so i relised there is a leak where the turbo is so i tighten the turbo bolts runs better but now car is blowing out a shit load of blue smoke which is burning oil i know and now i have no idea what is wrong with it, i think its blown turbo, i had this highflowed and rebuilt befor by hypergear 2 years ago but when i changed plugs i notice carbon built up on the old ones.

any ideas??? my mechanic said he will do a compression test.

Assume it is running the oil feeding line that is supplied with the turbo, if not then it would've been oil starved and needs rebuilding.

Check turbo shaft play. (usually +/- 1mm side, and +/- 0.3mm in and out). If there are no abnormal shaft play then its likely not been a turbo issue, unless its has been driven for a while like the way it is.

Check to make sure there are no kinks or bends in any parts of the oil drain pipe that are capable of storing oil.

Check and make sure engine is not over filled with oil.

If you have a catch can, disconnect it and plumb breathers back to its usual spot.

Check engine timing.

At last remove the turbocharger and drop it by for inspection.
